If heaven is a place on earth, luxury acolytes will surely find it on the top floor of New York City’s new Hermès flagship. Here, guests are greeted by a domed ceiling composed of 20 bas-relief panels—based on ink drawings by the French artist François Houtin—each of which took more than 100 hours to create; they had to be installed on-site with a custom-made lifting cradle. The result is as much an engineering marvel as it is a testament to the artistic integrity of this famed luxury brand—and that’s before you notice the exquisite leather goods beneath it. At approximately 45,000 square feet, 706 Madison Avenue is one of the largest Hermès outposts in the world. The store is, in fact, three buildings combined: a neo-Federal-style landmark bank building from…

Although the past couple of years are not entirely in the rearview mirror, as a whole, humanity seems to have rebounded. But one aspect of the long isolation—that the primary bathroom became a refuge when everyone was always home—has remained. We’ve developed an unyielding need for personal space, and that’s not something we’re apt to give up quickly. Bathrooms as we know them are a relatively recent phenomenon. Ancient Romans and medieval Europeans, for instance, used public facilities for communal bathing, thus both getting clean and socializing. It wasn’t until the early 20th century that having a discrete bathroom in one’s house was regarded as de rigueur. Today, people redoing their baths are pushing hard to keep—and extend—that separation. Anna Karp, CEO of New York design-build firm Bolster, says she…

The story of Torre del Falco—the Tower of the Falcon—begins in Italy’s hilly Tuscia region north of Rome. There, on the outskirts of the town of Ronciglione, Paola Igliori returned some years ago to her family’s estate, Villa Lina, a sprawling and picturesque property surrounded by the Cimini, a range of volcanic mountains. Igliori, a writer and filmmaker who had been living in New York City, inherited a 1920s villa, built on the remains of one erected more than two centuries earlier; an 18thcentury botanical garden; and a symbolic landscape created in the 1930s by the noted architect Raffaele de Vico. She now lives there full-time and has spent years transforming the estate into a country retreat, where she welcomes travelers interested in discovering the treasures of the region. But…

When the under-the-radar architecture firm Modellus Novus learned that they had won the commission to design Tatiana, the new restaurant at Lincoln Center, they’d be the first to admit they were surprised. The studio, known as MN, had made its reputation on designing such cool downtown Manhattan spots as Saga and Crown Shy. After a six-week proposal process, “we beat out all these heavy hitters for this commission,” says Preeti Sriratana, a principal at MN. Even better, they were selected by a pair of their idols: architects Billie Tsien and Tod Williams, who recently completed a transformative revamp of David Geffen Hall, the home of the New York Philharmonic. “MN makes spaces that are intimate and seductive,” Tsien says of the selection of the small studio to design the hall’s…

Picture a world in which you exist only as a digital avatar. Your home is designed with waterfall walls rather than oak. The exterior is surrounded by flames rather than lush green landscape. As for your property’s location, please consider the most remote part of the globe, where neither the laws of physics and geography nor permits and budgets exist. It’s hard to envision, right? Enter tech’s new obsession: the metaverse. A term coined by the writer Neal Stephenson in his 1992 novel Snow Crash, it refers to a place where virtual, augmented, and physical realities collide in a fully digital world. It goes beyond non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and cryptocurrencies and crosses into gaming. If you’ve ever created a house in Animal Crossing or the Sims, then you’ve experienced interior…

HOW TO CHOOSE THE PERFECT MATTRESS You spend one-third of your life in bed, why not make it wonderful? MAKE IT PERSONAL Scale the size to your space and match the firmness to your sleep style. Map out your bedroom to determine whether a king or a queen would be the best fit. If you sleep with a partner (or pets!), it may be worth sizing up. Find the right feel—Firm, Plush, or Ultra Plush—based on your usual sleep position. THINK LONG TERM A high-quality mattress should last up to 10 years, so invest in comfort, durability, and support. Research how it’s made—the materials used for the interior and the exterior can have a major impact on comfort and durability over time. TRUST THE LEGACY Seek out a brand with…

The northwestern Argentine province of Salta offers a dramatic landscape where the imposing peaks of the Andes mountains frame Spanish Colonial architecture. Here, the farm where landscape designer Jenny Graham spent her childhood later became the same place she and her husband, Jonny, a commodities broker, chose to settle after three decades of living in London. Though the vast terrain of the farm encapsulates areas for crops and cattle, it consists primarily of the sort of untouched nature that characterizes the region—low scrub vegetation and the surfeit of wildlife it attracts. “I believe the landscape should dictate what the architecture becomes,” says Jenny Graham of the site they selected for the home they designed. “We found a little barren zone on a hill where there wasn’t much wilderness to remove,…

THE GILDED AGE MAY BE LONG GONE, BUT YOU CAN STILL own a bit of the era’s decorative glamour. Christie’s has amassed more than 40 Tiffany Studios objects to be auctioned off on December 9 in Manhattan, ranging from Favrile glass and iconic lighting to pottery and enamelware. The lots, which mainly consist of pieces produced between 1895 and 1920, highlight the exceptionally fine quality of Louis Comfort Tiffany’s glass workshops in the early 20th century. Motifs from the natural world run through the collection: Flowers and other flora and fauna offer a counterpoint to the story of a rapidly modernizing world following the Industrial Revolution. The hankering for greenery in the era was met with an equally enthusiastic embrace of geometric patterns, repetitive forms, and vibrant hues. These points…
